Quick GTA V question regarding the character wheel

[Ranorak]

So, I have just started playing the game, so far I'm loving it.

And I know that the number on the character wheel shows each person's available missions.
So far I have unlocked Franklin and Micheal, and I think I just started to organise my first heist. But both characters have a 1 under their name, but no missions on the map.

I think Micheal should just wait until he gets a phone call, but I have no idea what to do with Franklin.
It says he has a mission, but it's just not showing on the map. Unless there is a mission with the garages I missed.

Can someone help me out?

I think it shows 1 by default. Im not sure though. Ive had a few instances where its been inaccurate. Best thing to do is just see whats on the map and keep checking the characters email and texts

Nah, it doesn't show 1 by default. I once did all possible missions at the time for Micheal and there was no number under his name.

Possibly a stranger/freak you haven't located. I was having that problem with Franklin and got a text to call that crackhead tow truck lady.

I think there's messages on your phone that trigger missions.

More to the point, I have to organise my first heist with Lester, but the guy's insisting that I wear a nice suit.
The problem is that I need a few grand for that, and I currently have no money. I have done all currently available missions for both Michael and Franklin (Trevor isn't unlocked yet), so how on earth do I raise the cash?

What can you do to earn bucks in this game? I hope I don't have to resort to doing taxi runs.

Just go home , and change into the suits you have in the closet . Don't worry , depending on how you do in the heist , you'll make mad cash ...

Hold up a few convenience stores.

Stupid question, but how do you do that? Every store is apparently a weapon free zone.

Walk up to the counter. Pull out your gun when given a prompt. Or perhaps you're in the wrong stores.

The answer to this is simple:

Its the same mission. Franklin is coming along with Michael to do the heist, so the 1 left under Franklin is the heist itself, which you are preparing for with Michael.

Rob a few grocery stores or try and get the money from the cash vans when they come up Also if you have some spare cash invest in the stock market to make mad money on the in-game internet.

Not from what i've played, just pull your gun out and aim at the clerk. Keep aiming there until they give you the money. Just don't do it in ammunation XD Gas stations are the easiest.
